WTF Is That?

I had decided not to post today because I’m just too exhausted and have no brain power to write. BUT that all changed about 30 minutes ago when I discovered the most disturbing of all God’s creatures. Which, I’m still not totally convinced it isn’t a spawn of the Devil….

A client at the place in which I work had mentioned seeing a “Potato Bug” last night. I was pretty sure no such thing exists because I’ve never heard of it before in my life. So to prove that I was right (as I normally am) I did what we all do and Googled it. Now, I hope you have all relieved your bladders and finished lunch because you will never believe what I found. Not only do they exist but they look like this:

Cute?!?? LOL They bite! I was reading someone’s comment who said that it clamped down on his wife’s finger and wouldn’t let go. I’d have to sacrifice a finger if it were me…I wouldn’t give a damn…cut the finger off to save myself!

Oh, my goodness!! What an eerie looking creature. Never seen anything like that ever. What we called potato bugs when I was growing up looked nothing like that. That is a pretty good sized bug too. I would not want to have crawling around on me. 🙂
